Tom Chaplin released a stunning new album, Midpoint, September 2nd and this emotionally charged collection features thirteen brand new songs sung with beauty and grace.

Tom began writing these new songs two years ago when Keane’s 2019 Cause and Effect tour was rudely interrupted by the pandemic. The songs, all founded on reflection and imagination, were recorded in six weeks at Peter Gabriel’s Real World Studios in Bath and Paul Epworth’s The Church in North London.

While the songs share an emotional warmth first exhibited on Tom’s debut 2016 solo album The Wave, sonically this new music is a revelation. There are still a few dates left on the tour
